Pros

Alarm.com is a fresh and young company that encourages their employees to be collaborative and innovative. Everyday, I am more and more impressed by the investment that my department puts into my team to ensure we’re as knowledgeable and resourceful as possible. Alarm.com cares about their employees; that’s easy to see from our company wide outings, the benefits package, the beautiful HQ office, and the extensive hiring process that ensures only the best of the best are onboarded. I look forward to going into work everyday because I get to be apart of a collaborative group of team members who strive to exceed all of our goals for the year. There is a great team dynamic and Alarm.com encourages fun across all departments. From Breakfast club, to ping pong tournaments, super smash bros, and more, Alarm.com has exceeded every expectation of what a workforce should look like.

Cons

The traffic in Tyson’s is brutal for commuters

Pros

Company culture - the people are great. Decent benefits for a single person Interesting products and projects Work from home flexibility (2 days)

Cons

Compensation could be more competitive for the area. Unfortunately, they are taking advantage of the employer market right now, and offering salaries 6k less than what starting salaries the year prior was offered. Your manager definitely has the biggest impact on your time here, with little regulation or management above them. It will entirely shape your experience, for better or for worse. Decreased work from home flexibility - when I accepted the offer, my recruiter told me it was typical for employees to work from home around the November and December holidays, with no need to take all your vacation days to do so. At the last minute, this norm was mysteriously taken away, and depending on your manager, employees were told to either use their vacation days or be in the office the day before and after Xmas. Cozy. The AI strategy here is starting to finally look like an actual strategy, but before that it was in every sense of the world a mania and definitely shifted the culture in a bad way. Kudos to the people who attempted to take leadership and actually formulate our strategy. HR here is kind of useless, the team is extremely bloated. Onboarding was not a fun experience.
